The NC$$ manual is 511 pages long
 
General regulation 12.2.3.2.4.1 on page 73 covers this
12.2.3.2.4.1
12              Amateurism
   2              involvement with professional teams
     3              competition
       2              competition with professionals (you lose
                      your eligibility if you competed with a team and
                      knew the team was professional
         4              Major A Junior Ice hockey (prima facie
                        evidence of professional competition)
           1              Limitation on restoration of eligibility (if

my understanding is that latendrese (because of Jr. A) had only 3
years of eligibility, and apparently has already used them.  Tory, on
the other hand, was ineliugible because of grade point, and sat out
until his grades were high enough.
